Unit Stacks refuse to merge

Two units same type.....

Just trying to consolidate seperate stacks.... not actually merging the units.

At times, certain specific units simply refuse to stack together.

I am sure this is simply a flag unset, or set, but I dont know where it is to fix it.

Anyone have any ideas?

Do you see a lock on one of the tab? You have perhaps prevented merging with this option.

No visible graphic clues.

The units simply refuse to combine into one stack.

I will send you the turn, with examples.

This sometimes happens when your units are in a coastal fort or river city. What you need to do is to move the units you want to combine/recombine outside the city or fort. There they will combine/recombine normally. Then you move them back to the fort as needed.

In my opinion this is a bug that has not been corrected. It is a bit frustrating, but once you know of this workaround it isn't too much of a hassle.

Well I sent POCUS a saved game, so when he gets around to it possibly.

Hello,

I answered to you Sardonic, have you got the mail? There is a lock on the supply unit tab. This is a feature.

Yes you did, and I thank you. The problem is that I was looking at the wrong tab.

I apologize

No need to. If I received a stone each time I did an error, I would be buried under a big mountain [:'(]
